Big game this weekend Friday night against Providence. BC is up 2 points in the standings with a game in hand after PC lost to NU this week. Kudos to NU, sitting at 3rd in HE after being picked in the preseason to finish last & 9th in the PWR

Brown on Saturday night should be interesting as well. Can't remember the last time BC played down there, they're 6-6-2 and just came off a weekend where the tied @ Denver & won @ CC.

BU lost to Dartmouth (who was 2-11-2 coming in) last night and now sits at an impressive 7-10-2 and is in 10th place in HE.

I bought tickets to Friday Night, big game. Always tough with their goalie Gilles

I see Billett gets the start tonight. It seems like he's got the inside track on the job right now? Or just getting Demko eased back in as he'll get Saturday's against Brown.

I think you read it right, that rightnow Billett is in the lead. Interesting, as I thought Demko would grab it by now.

For comparison's sake here are their numbers:

Billet: 9-3-1 2.30 .925
Demko: 4-1-1 2.31 .911

You do look at the opponents each has faced, I think Demko has faced the tougher opponents:

Billet: @ Mich, Wisco, @ Minn, @NU, Army, @Mass, Mass, @Harvard, @Maine, UNH, Bowling Green, Ped St, ND
Demko: RPI, @ Minn, NU, @BU, HC, @UNH

If anyone is debating going to the Brown apparently they don't have many tickets left so I'd call ASAP.

BTW Doherty isn't playing tonight which is unreal.

You say unreal, but I believe you mean 'expected.' Though I can't say why, either.

Doesn't help that the game is sold out with the students on break... Lots of cars here.

We've got a hockey weirdo sitting in the solo seat next to us that never sells. I'm worried its one of you...

That's what everyone was saying, next 2 games are a sellout as well

Excellent win, that big line is clicking right now great to see the power play get back on track.

Up 4 points on PC w a game in hand, not bad

Tomorrow at brown might be a home game in providence

BU just lost one of their best players Matt Gryzleck to a separated shoulder in practice, so there's that

Never seen traffic like that for a hockey game. Funny because there were more cops assigned than usual as well.

Well-earned W.

Gonna need help outside the big line down the stretch.
Every time I think I've seen everything JG can do, he proves me wrong.
The defense around the crease was soft.
Billet looks really comfortable finally.
Kevin Hayes = JD Drew.

That's how you sleep through a game, completely different team from last night

Great to see the 4th line play like that though

I'll maintain my stance despite the dominance I don't like the big line. Too many talented payers have disappeared
